Information technologies have the potential to affect the types and distribution of jobs in the health care workforce. Against a background of an explosively growing body of knowledge in the health sciences, current models of clinical decision making by autonomous practitioners, relying upon their memory and personal experience, will be inadequate for effective twenty-first-century health care delivery. The growth of consumerism and the proliferation of Internet-accessible sources of health-related information will modify the traditional roles of provider and patient and will provide opportunities for new kinds of employment in health-related professions.
信息技术有可能影响医疗保健劳动力的工作类型和分布。在健康科学知识急剧增长的背景下，当前自主从业者依靠记忆和个人经验进行临床决策的模式，将不足以满足21世纪有效提供医疗保健服务的需求。消费主义的兴起以及互联网上与健康相关信息来源的激增，将改变提供者和患者的传统角色，并为健康相关职业带来新的就业机会。
